This book provides a critical feminist analysis of the Korean
Protestant Right's gendered politics. Specifically, the volume
explores the Protestant Right's responses and reactions to the
presumed weakening of hegemonic masculinity in Korea's
post-hypermasculine developmentalism context. Nami Kim examines
three phenomena: Father School (an evangelical men's manhood and
fatherhood restoration movement), the anti-LGBT movement, and
Islamophobia/anti-Muslim racism. Although these three phenomena may
look unrelated, Kim asserts that they represent the Protestant
Right's distinct yet interrelated ways of engaging the contested
hegemonic masculinity in Korean society. The contestation over
hegemonic masculinity is a common thread that runs through and
connects these three phenomena. The ways in which the Protestant
Right has engaged the contested hegemonic masculinity have been in
relation to "others," such as women, sexual minorities, gender
nonconforming people, and racial, ethnic, and religious minorities.
